As it turns out, a PC version of Street Fighter X Tekken was not supposed to be listed on a press release file Capcom sent out when the embargo for Captivate was lifted.Svensson: I can't say that it's happening and I won't say that it isn't happening... apologies for the confusion. It was listed on the FAQ sheet when it shouldn't have been there.
I realize that's raising more questions than its answering, but stay tuned.
Theres going to be some serious tears soon, I can smell it haha
lol, I knew it was a little odd to announce 360/PS3 & PC all at once.
PC FTLULZ
@Catalyst, I was being more or less sarcastic at the end. I can't say I'm terribly upset, just a bit disappointed that PC users will ultimately be playing the guessing and waiting game again for lord knows how long.
On the bright side, the end-all-be-all release of SF4 will be hitting the PC side of things soon, and that's a closer reality than SFxT would've been regardless.
its going to PC watch. whenever they say "I cant say yes or no on this subject" in the past its always a yes.
i'm sorry for the pc players who would really buy the game. but i think releasing a game for pc is almost like giving it away as shareware with all the easy piracy. and i don't blame capcom for their releasing habits at all. AE for pc means to me that capcom is done with sf4 and finally i can stop hoping for more characters or anything like that.
(i just hope they're already working on SF5 with all SF characters in it..)
as soon as they knew they werent geting ssf4 for pc they should have started saveing some cash here and there and grabed an xbox/ps3.
SFxT is not for PC? GOOD! =) PC players who download pirated games, go buy this game for PS3 or Xbox360 if you want to. Plus you buy it for support of Capcom. Don't wait for it to come on PC!
People who play on XBOX and PS3 are just jealous people who doesn't want the game to come out in any other console. Look for Capcom is not (hopefully) not too much work and is worth a bit. Yes you have pirates and I like the fact they are trying to figure out a solution. After all, there are a lot of online games on PC like WoW, and Blizzard can still make a money without having to put WoW on XBOX and PS3.
All Capcom needs is time to figure out how to release it on PC and hope for the best. Anyhow, they already earn my respect... and my money.

"That, or they just want to pirate the games as opposed to paying for them."
"PC players who download pirated games"
Because pirating NEVER happens on consoles, right?
Get your head out of your ass, please. This argument is an old hat. I'm guessing the anti-pc dumbasses are the same people who don't even realise that their precious video games are developed and tested more or less on these machines that they so hate.
I wasn't holding my breath for a PC release of TekkenXSF anyway. Who's to say it doesn't get released a year later?
How mentally retarded do you have to be in order to be against them releasing games on the PC? How does it in any way affect you guys as console gamers? My best guess is you guys do it out of jealousy but perhaps one of you can tell me I am wrong.
And for the record, piracy has practically zero affect on the sales of a game. People don't pirate games that they would otherwise have bought. They pirate games that they have no intention of buying, either because of money issues or because they just aren't interested enough in the game to spend money on it. The only reason PC game sales are lower than console sales is because there are fewer of us, it has nothing to do with piracy.
All hail the mighty troll "ono"
I guess you guys are right they did the same thing with vanilla sf4.
They should try using an online activation
like half life2 did.
it didnt get much piracy..

QUOTE: ""How does it in any way affect you guys as console gamers?""
Well it affects console players in some degree, because there are pure PC players, who got XBOX/PS3 just to play SSF4, and these people will gladly switch back to PC as soon as possible.
Anyway SFxTekken doesn't look promising at all in its current state, just more colorful with even more annoying juggling/screenflashes... I would rather stick to SSF4:AE
I'm sick of all these people saying that PC doesen't deserve these games. You all do realise that not everyone has an Xbox 360 or PS3 ?
What a load of crap! Seriously.
I'm not saying that SFxT was going to be the best game ever, but I was at least surprised that Capcom would actually include PC users in the release of a new game. But no, we're just gonna have to put up with the same stupid crap that they always pull. Milk the consoles, then throw the leftovers to the PC, probably after a new version of the original console is announced/released.
Hey, at least they're not saying SSF4 AE for the PC wasn't an accident, right?
